﻿Suspects arrested in Turkey linked to Paris attackers

Turkish security forces have killed 13 Kurdish terrorists in air strikes near the countryand’s southeastern Iraq border, the army said in a statement on Monday, as surging violence in the region shows no signs of abating.
Bloodshed has swept the predominantly Kurdish region since the breakdown of a two-year cease-fire between the terrorist Kurdistan Workersand’ Party (PKK) and the government in July. The end of the cease-fire has torn apart a peace process initiated by Ankara with the groupand’s leader, Abdullah andOcalan, in 2012 and left hundreds dead.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has vowed to fight the PKK until all of its militants are andquotliquidated.andquot
The terrorists were killed in air strikes in the andcukurca district of Hakkari province on Sunday, the army said. Four more PKK fighters were detained in two other eastern provinces, Airi and Siirt.
The PKK took up arms against the state in 1984, and since more than 40,000 people, mostly Kurdish militants, have died in the conflict. Ankara, the United States and the European Union all list the PKK as a terrorist organization.
World leaders are currently gathered in the Turkish coastal city of Antalya for the G-20 summit, where tackling terrorism is seen as a key priority.
